Hello Friends, my Tetra has had a swimming bladder problem I believe for a year or so, haven’t been able to figure that problem out but have given up hope, he sinks in the rear and must keep forward movement to stay level and not sink, I have treated for every disease know and switched foods and don’t feed dry food. The problem as of late with her is a fungus, so I though, on her tail fin which look like a jelly and adds to her sinking problem, the first time this happened I treated with API All in one with no response so I simple scraped it off with a blade and treated with salt baths. Now it’s back again after a few months, I believe it’s coming from her tail rubbing the gravel while sleeping, she must keep wagging her tail to stay afloat while sleeping. But I have treated her with API primafix thinking is a fungus but still doesn’t touch it, the 30 gal. tanks perimeters are fine and it’s a well established tank with healthy fish and an algae eater that does a great job of cleaning. Water changes are weekly 20% with charcoal filters running. Any ideas would be appreciated, thank, William
